O
On Sunday I stopped in to watch my grand niece compete in a cheerleading competition. Talk about a different: glitter, glitz, and glamor galore.
The number of questions I posed was indicative of just how dissimilar my world of boys is from my niece’s world of only girls. She was especially amused when I asked why the bows, facing up towards the sky, were balanced like flying saucers on the heads of many of the girls. Apparently, they’re supposed to be pinned so that they face forward instead of up.
For some reason, the gal on top of this pyramid reminded me of Sharpay from High School Musical. It’s so unlike grand niece. She’s somewhere in the middle of tomboy and pretty girl. Unfortunately, I did not get a good picture of her on stage. The team pictured here was her team’s #1 competitor. As luck would have it, my niece’s team performance allowed them to run away with the trophy.
